military officials when it comes to measuring violence and death in afghanistan you can respond to us on facebook twitter and you tube and who knows your response just might make it on air. now we make a consistent effort to call out police departments across the country who are out of line overly aggressive and abusive but today we'd like to tell you about a police department who seems to be condoning it misconduct a month their own it's the los angeles police department so you new article from the l.a. times highlights a fairly new procedure where any cop who acts out of line is now just going to receive a conditional official reprimand rather than the traditional suspension without pay punishment why is this a big deal well how about because this reprimand is nothing but a warning just a verbal no between the officer and his supervisor the more serious repercussions would be coming in the future if it happens again now it's even more shocking is the fact that this is happening at the l.a.p.d. which let's face it has a less than perfect track record when it comes to law abiding cops
